More fun at the Pyramids November 8, 2010

This was the oldest Pyriamids in Mexico but as you can see not much to see so I took some pictures of the "Dia de los Muertos".... kind of spooky!

Our trip to Prabla in September 27, 2010

Amazing to watch them paint the beautiful Pottery..... Here is our group viewing the Pyramids and having lunch together...don't we look like a happy bunch.

Celebration of the 16 of September 2010 at our home

First picture is of our President and his wife of the Mexico City Temple next our neighbor Hermano Lopez... then us girls.
Lots of video of our fun evening that was actually celebrated on Monday September 13, 2010.

John on September 11, 2010

John with our cart of Veggies and fruit after shopping on Saturday morning. We love the fresh fruit especially at this Market Place. I will have to take a picture of it next Saturday if I remember to take my camera.

On the streets of Mexico Saturday, September 11, 2010

I love this video of the Horse and the Mexican Man carting his herbs to sell. I have seen him three times as we go shopping to the market place but never had my camera. At last I seen him and was able to get a shot. This video was taken almost in front of the Temple.

"Verde" our turtle in Mexico

Well it's too bad we can't take him home but we will find a good home for him. Thought Dawnette would like to see this video since she is the one who talked us into buying "Verde"......I have to confess it didn't take too much talking because we liked him too.

John 73 years young.........

Had fun celebrating John's Birthday with Missionary friends at Chilis .... yes, they have Chilis in Mexico. Sorry Dawnette I'm not a good picture taker like you.

Hail Storm was great....

The hail was the size of a marbles and I loved the sound. I also love the lightning stroms here in Mexico.

May 2010..........

It was nice to meet Sister Bednar back in May 2010 when they were both out here in Mexico. Elder Bednar spoke to the young missionaries and we met Sister Bednar in the Temple. They are in the "Comedor" (Cafeteria) that John and I eat in every day that we serve at the Temple...Tuesday through Saturday.

John and I at Cuernavaca with friends

The holtel was called "Las Mananitas" and we loved having lunch there and looking through the grounds. It was like I imagine the "Garden of Eden" beautiful!!!!

We're back.....

Here is our new home since we were flooded out of our other one.... picture of John's feet and actully the water went up to his ankle before the storm was over.

The Senior Missionary's are started to leave for home....

May 3, 2010 we lose three senior missionary's from the Temple. We will miss them very much. Especially the Bluth's which are in our unit. They had a large party for them. We had lots of fun.

Dinner at Rincon Argentino again..........

Farewell to our frinds the Bluth's .... we had a great dinner but was full after the soup and salad.

Dinner before our outing to Swan Lake Ballet March 4, 2010

Well they would not let us take pictures or video of the ballet except at the very end so I was able to get one..... but not a very good one.

Our second trip to visit the Mariposa's Feb. 16, 2010

This was a different place we went to see the butterflies which was north of Mexico about a two hour ride. It was worth it because we seen more butterflies there than we seen at our frist trip in January. The tree looks like a lot of brown leafs but they were packed with butterflies.

New Temple Presidency ...... I updated my Blog so please go to older post to see as far back as Nov. 2009

This is our new Presidency at the Mexico Temple. They are very nice and we love serving under their leadership. Also many buses again on Saturday Jan. 30, 2010. The count was 60 and many buses just dropped the people off since there was no room left in the parking lot with all the cars.

Good-bye dinner to our friends....

We enjoyed an Italian dinner with our Zerahemla friends which was
a good-bye dinner for the Directors of the Visitor Center...Elder and Sister Garvin's.

January 6, 2010...My Birthday

What a surprise I had from John.....He took me out to lunch with Dr. Brunt and his wife Diane and we bought a few things at a Mexican place that has 50 or 60 shops on a corner square block. We got home and I expected to relax.... when a knock on the door and John opened it and Dr. Brunt brought in two beautiful cakes and then John brought in a big round table and I asked him what was going on. He said a few people were coming over for cake. Many of them spoke Spanish so I asked them to sing me the Mexican Birthday song....and as they were getting ready I heard music and what a surprise John hired the Mariachi's for an hour....what a loving surprise....I had no idea!!! (sorry for the double picture....I don't know how to get it off without taking them all off). I like video but they take so long to do and sometimes I spend so much time trying to upload them that it's not worth it. If you don't see a video on my birthday it's because it canceled itself out.

January 4, 2010 Visit to the Butterflies

We had a fun time visiting the butterflies even though it was cold and we didn't see too many close up. Most of them stayed up in the trees way up high. The little boy named Felix adopted us and stayed with us so we could eat at his moms little restaurant. We all brought our own lunch so we didn't eat there but he was so cute and loving we decided to give him 40 pesos so he could buy a little something for himself.
